Igor

I found something like:
ac_link='${CC-cc} -o conftest${ac_exeext} $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $LDFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext $LIBS 1>&5'

But there are no options like "CC=gcc" for "./configure" for that package. And I checked error message under a unix server, which has the same unrefenced yywrap info, like:

configure:624: cc -o conftest    conftest.c -lfl   1>&5
/usr/ucb/cc: language optional software package not installed
configure: failed program was:
#line 613 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
... (following are same)


Does the line about "/usr/ucb/cc..." indicate any lack of a particular software tool? Thanks.

Chu

Chu,

This is a buggy configure.  Your first clue should have been the
underlined line below.  Check for the setting of ac_link in configure --
if it's set to something like

ac_link='$CC -o conftest$ac_exeext $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $LDFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext $LIBS >&5'

try running "./configure CC=gcc" or even put "export CC=gcc" into your
.bashrc...  For more info, "./configure --help".
	Igor
P.S. I'm not very familiar with autotools -- maybe running autoreconf or
something will fix this -- I just don't know.
